HTML Table with horizontal & vertical scrolling

I blog very frequently and sometimes the posts contain code snippets. The site template sometimes limits the available real-estate and this can cause certain issues. If there is long text in one line, then they are stripped and will not be visible.

The solution to this is to:

Use a template which provides more real-estate.OR

Use a scrollable HTML table.

If you chose the second option of a scrollable HTML table, below is a sample code-snippet that you can use to achieve this. The below snippet provides horizontal scrolling only. You can modify the same to achieve vertical scrolling
